To me, this is his Achilles' heel. RLG Jun 2019 #23

Really? leftofcool Jun 2019 #37

Do you truly believe low information African American voters will overlook this? RLG Jun 2019 #44

I honestly don't know how he can address this. nolabear Jun 2019 #8

Just switched to CNN...he looks so uncomfortable Indygram Jun 2019 #9

Well, it is an appropriate bellwether. He did as well as anyone could. nolabear Jun 2019 #21

I think he has a lot of work to do at home Indygram Jun 2019 #28

I agree completely with your take on this. MBS Jun 2019 #19

He does listen beautifully. I'm monitoring responses now. nolabear Jun 2019 #24
